Lions for Sale

If taken from their mother within the first few weeks of birth, lions are trainable animals. Several such lions are seen going through their training at the world's largest lion farm: Gay's Lion Farm in El Monte, California. If a lion has only one cub in her litter, that cub is always removed from her surroundings for the cub's protection. The lion tamers look for any natural tendency within an animal's behavior to enhance in training.

In Botswana's Okavango Delta, an ostracized lioness and her two cubs must fight alone to survive - overcoming all manner of hazards. Their only defense is to escape to Duba Island -- and with that, an unknown future. The setting for this epic tale is one of the last regions where lions can live in the wild. Faced with dwindling land and increasing pressure from hunting, lions - like our lone lioness and her cubs - are approaching the brink of extinction.

The Hollow Child

Rated 6.3 on TMDB

Samantha has lived her whole life in different foster homes. Now living in a small town, she never feels like she quite fits in, even with her own current foster family who might adopt her, or the boy who follows her around doing her classwork. So, it’s perhaps natural that she doesn’t know what to do with a curious tagalong little sister named Olivia. One day, Sam callously ditches Olivia, who wanders off into the woods on her own and disappears.
